A fun little discussion here in Pokemon General where you discuss what you would do in certain scenarios!

What is this about?

Glad you asked! I was thinking that we could have a bit more fun and laid-back discussion about hypothetical scenarios that would occur to you if you were in the Pokemon World. This is pretty much the entire premise of WWYD (What Would You Do); that is, what would you do in a given scenario? Remember that there are no right or wrong answers, just your thoughts!

Can I suggest some scenarios, too?

Of course you can! In fact, I highly encourage you to! Feel free to PM either myself or Brendino your suggestions just so we can give them the ok, and you're free to post your own WWYD scenario for others to discuss! That being said, let's get on with our scenario, shall we?

What would you do in this scenario?

Congratulations! You've saved the Pokemon World from total destruction! However, like in the end of every Pokemon Mystery Dungeon game, it is time for you to go. However, before you return to your previous life, you are given an important choice. You do have the option of remaining in the Pokemon World, but you will remain there forever. Alternatively, if you choose to return to your old life, you are free to do so, but you will live the rest of your life knowing that you cannot return to the Pokemon World. What would you do?

I would say that I have nothing worth living for in this life, but if that was the case I would have ended my life last year like I'd planned to. I think if given this choice, much as I'd want to take the easy way out and remain, I'd end up going back to my old life for that one thing. Life without that isn't really living, even if it is in somewhere far more interesting and exciting like the Pokemon world.

Personally, this would probably be one of the hardest decisions for me to make! I've gone through a lot of rough patches in my real life, but I've also made tons and tons of memories. It'd be difficult to imagine me throwing all of that away just to remain in the Pokemon world... but I'd also really want to remain in the Pokemon world as well. It's definitely going to bother me that I may never get an opportunity to go back. :\

Whatever the choice would be depends on how I feel about my life as a human as well as that of a Pokemon...

Living in a world where Pokemons exist (including myself) is a dream come true for me, but whether it be worth the sacrifice of the things I love as a human... It is a really tough choice.
Can't we have a compromise?? :(

A very tough choice! It is really tempting to stay in Pokémon world forever but when
you think of the word “responsibility” and “purpose”, you will certainly choose to return
to your old life. Your duty to save that world is done, that’s why you were given a choice
to stay or leave; to abandon your own world by staying in Pokémon world or to continue
fulfilling your previous life.

For me, tough choices will help you grow to become a better person. Each chapter of
our life always ends with making decisions. Memories, experiences and choices are
the things that make us who we are and for that reason, we live to fulfill our purpose
in life.

I think I would return, because I probably left my family and stuff behind without goodbye or explanation, and they are probably worried about me. I'd be sad to leave the Pokémon world, but at least I can properly say goodbye to the Pokémon I met.
